SATB choir with text based on a Shakespeare poem. -
Twenty-Four Hallelujahs, for SATB chorus with piano, is a simple song of praise in a rich harmonic setting. The single word of text, “Hallelujah,” is repeated in a number of variations and rhythmic schemes that deliver nuances of meaning in a way that the text alone cannot. At times the text is contemplative; in others it is jubilant and even forceful. -

"Tell Me" is a work for two part high voices, with optional divisi. A whimsical work challenging both harmonically and rhythmically. The text asks (by a rather precocious child), some strangely interesting questions with a demand that someone "Tell Me"! One may want to consider utilizing "Tell Me" as the opening selection in a three works presentation for high voices by Jeffrey Kaufman. The second would be "Young and Old" and closing with "Frolic". -
A work for 2 part young voices with piano accompaniment. A nostalgic and tonal melodic setting of Charles Kingsley's lovely and simple reflection of youth versus old age.

Spring Comes
Spring Comes is a celebration of the season written in the style of a Renaissance madrigal. The words are a playful echo of the lighthearted texts used in madrigals of that genre, and the piece is predominately polyphonic. The music is not difficult to learn, even though it looks and sounds complicated. It is an excellent piece for teaching polyphonic texture, and an impressive addition to any concert program.
